About a third of our men are living in a tent on the other side of the Bay, where they have stowed the equipment as it is taken over by dog sledges. They have a mess hall made from dog orates. They dug down in the snow, and have placed'the crates along the sides and nave put the aeroplane propellor boxes over the top for beams. Over these they have placed a tarpaulin. The table is,made from a Ford ski upside down. The ball provides shelter of a sort, although on clays like yesterday and to-day it is not free from draught.
